Re: Stus-List Keeping props clean

[David Knecht]

I did try something like this a few years ago and did not have very good results with Micron CSC.  It did not adhere well.  I switched to Pettit zinc paint as well and had better results.   Martin- Do you remove the old zinc paint each year or rough the residual and add another coat?  Dave PS- Note the signature line.  I happily and officially rejoin the C&C family tomorrow with my "new" boat.
